SLIDE 20 PREVIOUS PROJECTS: A search on Google Scholar for PRICE ELASTICITY ELECTRICITY ”DEMAND RESPONSE” has almost 7000 results
- Early studies (1977-2000) on the “close-to-hourly” price
elasticity of households’ electricity consumption seem to have been dominated by Time-Of-Use (TOU) pricing projects.
- Lately Critical-Peak-Pricing (CPP) and Real-Time-Pricing
(RTP) have taken over the scene.
- Concluded: residential consumers have lower own-price
elasticity for RTP-programs than for TOU pricing, a result of information costs. (1)
- Difficult to compare the results and price elasticity
estimates from these different projects
